Message-Id: <E1YbYJY-0002KA-8S@titan.mandriva.com> Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 18:45:00 +0100 From: security@...driva.com To: bugtraq@...urityfocus.com Subject: [ MDVSA-2015:075 ] python -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2015:075 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : python Date : March 27, 2015 Affected: Business Server 2.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Updated python packages fix security vulnerabilities: A vulnerability was reported in Python's socket module, due to a boundary error within the sock_recvfrom_into() function, which could be exploited to cause a buffer overflow. This could be used to crash a Python application that uses the socket.recvfrom_info() function or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running vulnerable Python code (CVE-2014-1912). This updates the python package to version 2.7.6, which fixes several other bugs, including denial of service flaws due to unbound readline() calls in the ftplib and nntplib modules (CVE-2013-1752). Denial of service flaws due to unbound readline() calls in the imaplib, poplib, and smtplib modules (CVE-2013-1752). A gzip bomb and unbound read denial of service flaw in python XMLRPC library (CVE-2013-1753). Python are susceptible to arbitrary process memory reading by a user or adversary due to a bug in the _json module caused by insufficient bounds checking. The bug is caused by allowing the user to supply a negative value that is used an an array index, causing the scanstring function to access process memory outside of the string it is intended to access (CVE-2014-4616). The CGIHTTPServer Python module does not properly handle URL-encoded path separators in URLs. This may enable attackers to disclose a CGI script's source code or execute arbitrary scripts in the server's document root (CVE-2014-4650). Python before 2.7.8 is vulnerable to an integer overflow in the buffer type (CVE-2014-7185). When Python's standard library HTTP clients (httplib, urllib, urllib2, xmlrpclib) are used to access resources with HTTPS, by default the certificate is not checked against any trust store, nor is the hostname in the certificate checked against the requested host. It was possible to configure a trust root to be checked against, however there were no faculties for hostname checking (CVE-2014-9365). The python-pip and tix packages was added due to missing build dependencies. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-1752 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-1753 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-1912 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-4616 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-4650 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-7185 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-9365 http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0085.html http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0139.html http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0285.html http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0399.html _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 2/X86_64: d58b1b80b3dc737786ed59c11716efd7 mbs2/x86_64/lib64python2.7-2.7.9-1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm 094be70fc92a99ec299026414043a5ed mbs2/x86_64/lib64python-devel-2.7.9-1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm daaaff2334797306a8be9d6a8f4fa69a mbs2/x86_64/python-2.7.9-1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm 3418e101353fde429817cfea0298193b mbs2/x86_64/python3-pip-1.4.1-4.2.mbs2.noarch.rpm e0e7d10ce59e9eccd69d760fb377c5b2 mbs2/x86_64/python-docs-2.7.9-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm eaf8978737e06d46ddd2ee6d78658ae4 mbs2/x86_64/python-pip-1.4.1-4.2.mbs2.noarch.rpm ea585f2ec67cb5a4838c1fc08e615fa5 mbs2/x86_64/tix-8.4.3-9.mbs2.x86_64.rpm 5f83e970c318d9dad119943e986f8182 mbs2/x86_64/tix-devel-8.4.3-9.mbs2.x86_64.rpm a6b1667ad8ab5000b1eef329713aa5c3 mbs2/x86_64/tkinter-2.7.9-1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm 7ce085d9fb460e1093513d5579174697 mbs2/x86_64/tkinter-apps-2.7.9-1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm 85e67e3e2373ea06f2b2eb0e69682937 mbs2/SRPMS/python-2.7.9-1.mbs2.src.rpm 407d147f773bbc3fc3c5430619ee0f65 mbs2/SRPMS/python-pip-1.4.1-4.2.mbs2.src.rpm b561abc0b4fec04f0c398068faa5952f mbs2/SRPMS/tix-8.4.3-9.mbs2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
